As part of an attempt to "increase the performance and
effectiveness of the organization," a once-secret unit called "Camp
7" inside the Guantanamo Bay detention center in Cuba has been closed due
to its poor condition. The prisoners were transferred to another site, which is
adjacent to where the other prisoners at the US base are being held, according
to a statement released by the US military on Sunday.
The prisoners from Camp 7 were transferred to Camp 5
"safely and without incident," according to the US Southern Command.
However, it was not specified when the transfer took place. Camp 5, which was
almost unoccupied, is adjacent to Camp 6, which houses the rest of the
detainees.
Intelligence agencies participated in the transfer, the US
Southern Command reported.
The five prisoners charged with war crimes for their alleged
participation in the preparation and provision of logistical aid for the
terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 were among those detained in Camp 7.
